Tiger not happy about Haney's book

Tiger Woods news
 
 

Tiger Woods has expressed his disappointment in former swing coach Hank Haney for writing a book about the years they worked together.

Woods says he had no plans to read The Big Miss: My Years Coaching Tiger Woods when it hits shelves, the week before the Masters.

"I think it's unprofessional and very disappointing, especially because it's someone I worked with and trusted as a friend," Woods said.

"There have been other one-sided books about me and I think people understand that this book is about money. I'm not going to waste my time reading it."

During their six-year partnership that ended in May 2010, Haney had access to the privacy-minded 14-time Major winner that not many people in the world have shared, claiming he spent 110 days a year with Woods, and as many as 30 days annually at his home.

Woods won 31 titles, six of them Majors, while working with Haney.

"I just think this book is very self-serving," Woods said.

Woods dropped Butch Harmon as coach in 2002 and hired Haney, whom he thanked in his comments as well. Woods split from Haney in 2010 before starting work with Sean Foley.
